Episode 2: It Came From Beneath The Streets of San Francisco

Here it is, part 2 of my 3D animated movie with a 50s sci-fi style title, “It Came From Beneath the Streets of San Francisco”. “IT” is revealed for the first time in this episode: the monstrous look of this new breed of vampires, who live in the secret underground tunnels of the city and fly out at night to terrorize the denizens of San Francisco.

Like I mentioned in my first blog, this is a rather ambitious project-- attempting to create a full-length 3D animated movie using iClone Studio 2.5; Crazy Talk, with its type-to-speech feature for creating dialogue; and some other movie editing software-- but most good things in this life make you sweat a bit, right? Though it’s a lot of hard work, it’s fun stuff! And it is a very freeing feeling knowing that I can actually transform my books and screenplays into 3D animated realities, in iClonorama Vision, no less!

I'm very encouraged and humbled by the tremendous response to the 1st episode of "It Came…"! I’ve received some accolades, some constructive criticism, and a lot of encouragement to continue producing this movie by those who “can’t wait to see more!”

Thanks to everyone who viewed the first episode on this blog, on YouTube, in CloneClips, etc. Many of you have been very generous financially. Your donations via Paypal are certainly helping me a lot. With your donations, I bought some 3D backgrounds and props, which I needed to produce forthcoming episodes that take place in underground tunnels and secret rooms. I hope you continue to support me, so I can finish this project (and other 3D movies in the future) for all of you to enjoy.

Please click on the Paypal Link to donate and thanks again! If you haven't heard of PayPal, it is the safest and most highly regarded method of payment online (affiliated with Ebay). I apologize in advance if this is not convenient for you. And now, sit back, relax and enjoy part 2 of “It Came From Beneath The Streets of San Francisco.”

P.S. Congratulations to REALLUSION on the release of their iClone3! Hope to get this fantastic version of iClone someday!
